** Description changed:

- gimp-plugin-registry includes several python plugins which are installed to:
-  /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts
+ gimp python plugins installed to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts cannot be
+ called by gimp.
+ 
+ For example, gimp-plugin-registry includes several python plugins which are 
installed to:
+  /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts
  None of them are visible in GIMP. There is no problem with any of the 
script-fu plugins.
  
  This affects:
  btn4ws.py
  contactsheet.py
  file-ora.py
- cmyk-tiff-2-cmyk-pdf.py 
- ez-perspective.py 
+ cmyk-tiff-2-cmyk-pdf.py
+ ez-perspective.py
  layerfx.py
+ from the gimp-plugin-registry.
+ 
+ It also affects any other python plugin installed to
+ /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts
  
  Workaround: Copy these files to ~/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins and they
  immediately appear in their corresponding menus.
+ 
+ In HOME python plugins can be copied to "plug-ins" dir instead of
+ "scripts" to make them available. This is not possible at a system level
+ with /usr/share/gimp/2.0/
  
  This is a fresh install of Oneiric in virtualbox. What I have checked:
  - python files are executable
  - Refresh Scripts... -> no change
  - Plug-in browser -> plugins not appearing there
  - Copy the python file to ~/.gimp-2.6/scripts -> no change
  - Copy the python file to  /usr/share/gimp/2.0/plug-ins (create this dir) -> 
no change
  
- I cannot tell if it worked in previous versions or with other python
- /python-fu plugins
+ I cannot tell if it worked in previous versions.
